Module segment 

Segments: the unit of storage below the tar archive layer.

A segment is an immutable chunk of up to 256 KiB identified by a UUID. Data segments carry a header plus typed records; bulk segments are raw block data for large binaries. This module provides the identifier and generation types plus the segment parser.
